Short answer: Leo Rivers pays the most per unit across all product types (up to 20% more than Benji Coleman for premium products). But the best deal in the game is assigning low-spending customers to dealers and selling directly to high-spenders. This guide ranks all 6 dealers by what they pay per product type, so you know exactly who should sell what.

This is not a "who the dealers are" explainer. This is a price index -- a ranked reference for maximizing per-unit profit through dealer assignment. For the actual products to assign, check the recipe profit rankings to pick the highest-margin items per dealer tier.

Dealer Price Index: Ranked By Payout Per Product

Data cross-referenced from Fandom Wiki, PC Gamer dealer guide, Steam Community customer lists, and r/Schedule_I community testing.

Rank Dealer Weed Payout Meth Payout Coke Payout Premium Payout Best Product Cut
1 Leo Rivers High High High Highest Premium cocaine 20%
2 Wei Long High Medium Medium-High High Premium strains 20%
3 Jane Lucero Medium Low Medium-High Medium Mixed coke/weed 20%
4 Brad Crosby Medium Medium Medium Medium Cocaine 20%
5 Molly Presley Low High Low Low Meth 20%
6 Benji Coleman Medium Low Low Low Weed (OG Kush) 20%

All dealers take an identical 20% cut of revenue. The difference in payout comes from the customer types assigned to each dealer and their product preference. Leo Rivers' customers are high-spenders who buy premium products at full price. Benji Coleman's customers are early-game low-spenders who buy small quantities. The dealer doesn't change the margin -- the customer assignment does.

Which Dealer Buys What For The Most Money

This table shows the maximum markup each dealer will sustain before customers stop buying.

Product Type Best Dealer Max Sell Price (per unit) Daily Inventory Clear Rate Notes
OG Kush 4-mix ($120) Benji Coleman $100-110 8-12 units/day Low spenders, high volume
Premium Weed 4-mix ($160) Wei Long $140-155 6-10 units/day His customers pay premium
Meth 2-mix ($100) Molly Presley $90-100 10-15 units/day Fastest clear rate overall
Cocaine 4-mix ($200) Brad Crosby $170-190 6-8 units/day Mid-range margin
Cocaine 8-mix ($450) Jane Lucero $380-420 4-6 units/day Mix customers buy varied
Premium Cocaine ($600+) Leo Rivers $500-580 3-5 units/day Highest per-unit but slowest clear
Custom Strain 4-mix ($150) Wei Long $130-145 7-10 units/day Good mid-game option
Molly Presley clears inventory faster than any other dealer -- up to 15 meth units per day. If you're mass-producing meth, assign Molly first. Her customers are high-frequency buyers who go through stock quickly. For premium cocaine, Leo Rivers pays more per unit but moves stock at roughly one-third the speed.

Best Trading Combos

These are community-verified combos of product + dealer that outperform all other assignments:

Combo 1: The Meth Express (Hustler rank, $500 setup)

  • Dealer: Molly Presley
  • Product: Meth 2-mix (Pseudo + Iodine, ~$90-100 sell price) — once your dealers are assigned, the endgame guide covers how to scale supply across all six simultaneously.
  • Customers: High-frequency low-spenders (Kim Delany, George Greene, Jerry Montero)
  • Daily revenue: ~$900-1,500/day
  • Net after cut: ~$720-1,200/day
  • Why it works: Meth customers buy multiple times per day. Molly's customer list has the highest purchase frequency in the game.

Combo 2: Premium Pipeline (Block Boss rank, $4,000 setup)

  • Dealer: Wei Long
  • Product: Premium Weed 4-mix (OG Kush + Horse Semen + Mega Bean + Donut, ~$150-160)
  • Customers: Premium buyers (Vincent Tran, Olivia Hart, Marcus Webb)
  • Daily revenue: ~$1,000-1,600/day
  • Net after cut: ~$800-1,280/day

Price Index By Customer Spending Tier

Customers are not created equal. This tier list shows which customers are worth assigning to dealers vs selling to directly:

Tier Spend Per Visit Purchase Frequency Best Action Examples
S-Tier $300-500 1-2x per week Sell directly (keep 100% margin) Chloe Bowers, Ethan Hunt, Diana Prince
A-Tier $150-300 2-3x per week Sell directly or Leo/Wei if automated Vincent Tran, Olivia Hart, Marcus Webb
B-Tier $80-150 3-4x per week Dealer (good for Molly/Jane) Kim Delany, George Greene, Naomi Watts
C-Tier $30-80 4-6x per day Dealer (volume makes up for cut) Kyle Cooley, Kathy Henderson, Sam Thompson
D-Tier $10-30 1-2x per day Dealer (bare minimum, fill last slots) Ludwig Meyer, Beth Penn

Practical Example

You have 8 dealer slots (pre-v0.4.3 cap). Your goal is $5,000/day passive income.

Setup:

  • Slot 1-2: C-Tier customers on Benji Coleman (weed, $30-80 each, 4-6x/day) = ~$400-600/day
  • Slot 3-4: B-Tier on Molly Presley (meth, $80-150 each, 3-4x/day) = ~$500-800/day
  • Slot 5-6: A-Tier on Brad Crosby (cocaine, $150-300, 2-3x/week) = ~$400-700/day
  • Slot 7-8: Keep for your own direct sales to S-Tier customers (highest margin)

Result: ~$1,300-2,100/day from dealers + $800-1,500/day from direct sales = ~$2,100-3,600/day total.
